About this work
A young woman in a pale blue folk-style tunic with red-trimmed cuffs and a red cord belt stands three-quarter length, lifting a circular wreath of blue, violet and white flowers over her head with both hands. Loose flowers and grasses are gathered at her feet, her single dark braid falls over one shoulder, and her expression is grave and direct rather than festive.
The background is left almost bare, a hazy field of cream, pale blue and lilac brushstrokes that isolates the figure and wreath as the sole focus. Skin and fabric are built up in soft, blended academic modeling, while the flowers are dabbed in brighter, looser touches of colour, giving the image a quiet, ritual-like stillness.
